📄 Description

Summary

Introduces the Geist font family (by Vercel) into the app:

  • Geist Variable replaces Inter Variable as the primary UI font for all text
  • Geist Mono is added as a dedicated monospace font exclusively for all financial and numeric values

Motivation

Geist Variable (UI font)

Geist is a modern, clean sans-serif designed for interfaces. It ships as a variable font (single file covers all weights 300–900), making it a drop-in replacement for Inter Variable with no additional overhead.

Geist Mono (numeric font)

Using a monospace font for numbers provides two key benefits:

  • Alignment — Fixed-width digits keep decimal points and currency amounts vertically aligned in tables and budget cells
  • Readability — Monospace numerals are easier to scan when comparing figures across rows

Implementation

Geist Variable

The global font-family is declared in index.html and the font files are loaded via fonts.scss. Replacing Inter requires updating both: the npm package, the SCSS import, and the two font-family declarations in index.html.

Geist Mono

All numeric displays share a single style object — styles.tnum in packages/component-library/src/styles.ts. This object is spread into every component that renders financial values. Adding fontFamily to this one object propagates the change to all 34 call sites automatically with no per-component changes needed.

Affected numeric display locations:

  • Transaction amounts (TransactionsTable, mobile TransactionListItem)
  • Budget cells (BudgetCell, BudgetTotal, BalanceCell, SpentCell)
  • Envelope and tracking budget components
  • Amount inputs (AmountInput, FinancialInput)
  • Schedule and import modal amounts

Changes

File Change
packages/desktop-client/package.json Replace @fontsource-variable/inter with @fontsource-variable/geist and add @fontsource/geist-mono
packages/desktop-client/src/fonts.scss Import Geist Variable and Geist Mono (keep Redacted Script for privacy filter)
packages/desktop-client/index.html Update global font-family from 'Inter Variable' to 'Geist Variable'
packages/component-library/src/styles.ts Add fontFamily: 'Geist Mono, monospace' to styles.tnum

The monospace fallback in the Geist Mono font stack ensures number column alignment is preserved even if the web font fails to load.

Test plan

  • All UI text (labels, headings, menus, navigation) renders in Geist Variable
  • Transaction amounts render in Geist Mono
  • Budget cell figures render in Geist Mono
  • Numbers remain correctly aligned in table columns
  • Privacy filter still uses Redacted Script
  • All 382 unit tests pass (yarn workspace @actual-app/web test)
  • TypeScript check passes (yarn workspace @actual-app/web typecheck)
